Isopan Launch Event Share: The Good Company Score Awaiting client review n/a Date Published 10 April 2020 Reading Time 5-Minute Read How to transform a loft with no amenities, from the middle of Bucharest, into a perfect location for launching a high-tech product. “There is a new form of energy in the world – Knowledge.” A challenge from our client, 120 square meters, a bohemian closed-circuit loft in the middle of Bucharest (that we choose to keep anonymous) and a generous number of architects and journalists interested in innovative architecture solutions, all brought together for a single purpose – launching Leaf Technology – More than Just Insulation. Out of responsibility for the future, powered by Isopan Est. It all started with the idea of organising a luxury event for our client’s guests, an experience that would fit our client’s position as a market leader, in a place where they could arrive, meet up with their friends and their closest industry collaborators, have a good time and relax. Later, the launch event idea turned into a fine dining and innovation experience, as an alternative to the usual launch events we’ve grown accustomed to lately. “We asked ourselves how we could figure out the intentions of industry specialists, the interests and curiosities of niche journalists who write about the future of construction and its newest technologies, the approach companies have with regards to protecting the environment and what are the most important aspects construction industry specialists take into account for a better future of our planet, starting today. Therefore, together with our client, we decided to launch the new Leaf Technology in a formal but experience-based environment – over dinner, in a loft. In order to amplify our guests’ experience, we composed a high-tech agenda for the event, starting with an open public debate moderated by renowned architect Omid Ghannadi, themed “Innovation in construction. The concept of sustainability and innovation in construction”. The context allowed us to bring all these people together – renowned architects, constructors, developers, collaborators, business and niche journalists – people who answered our invitation to the event and the debate in surprising numbers. Many of them became our friends, as a clue to the good and natural energy we wanted to express during this event.” Bianca Dumitriu (Account Manager, The Good Company) As the combustible resources of the planet would only last for three to four more generations, the present time is critical, and taking action towards a transition to renewable energy is absolutely necessary. For this reason, the European Union imposed a 20% drop in CO2 emissions and energy consumption by 2020, with the same percentage of the total energy consumed coming from renewable sources. To make this possible, contractors and especially construction material suppliers must find new solutions focused on sustainability. The debate on Innovation and sustainable construction saw the stage attended by Alexandru Ciucă, Technical Director of Isopan Est, Ilinca Rădulescu, a professor of the Ion Mincu University, as well as renowned architect Omid Ghannadi, who also hosted the event. “Launching Leaf Technology – an innovation arisen from a responsibility towards the future – was the natural step that a market leader could take to encourage building a stable future for the next generations. The launch event was a challenge, as we wanted to surpass the limits of a fairly rigid industry and turn a simple construction industry-specific event into a glam experience that would bring stakeholders together. I’m glad that we managed to bring together, in a warm setting over a glam business dinner, everyone important to Isopan – Isopan partners, architects and designers, as well as the mass-media – since I believe that any message, regardless of its power or importance, depends on how it’s packaged and transmitted so that it may remain memorable through the experience created.” Simona Stanciu (PR Consultant, Isopan Est) About a month after the launch of Leaf technology in Romania, requests poured in from Isopan partners in other countries for the new technology, many of the questions originating in one of Isopan Est’s export countries – Hungary. This is why, in November, we were busy organising the second Leaf Technology launch event, in Hungary, under the umbrella of the same concept – Leaf. Out of responsibility for the future, which makes us enthusiastic. The Leaf technology launched by Isopan Est in 2019 is a specific solution of the construction industry, offering a reduced impact on the environment, increasing thermal insulation and improving the overall energy performance of a building, in order to provide a higher level of comfort and cost efficiency. The Leaf Technology applies to a vast array of thermal insulation panels on offer, Isofrigo, Isofrozen and Isocop. The products are made without halogens and have multiple benefits: decreased smoke propagation in case of fire; increased security both for the building and its occupants; thinner panels and better aesthetics; better insulation performance than classical polyurethane panels; 20% less thermal conductibility, making the building more energy-efficient, and fewer CO2 emissions. Part of the Veronese group Manni, Isopan has been developing industry-specific products for over four decades, investing 10 million Euro into R&D and technical upgrades of the local Romanian production facility in the last year alone. The Leaf Technology has been tested, over time, in the R&D department in Italy. The team making this campaign possible was comprised of: Ana Stănel (Managing Partner – The GOOD Company) Bianca Dumitriu (Account Manager – The Good Company) Andreea Surugiu (Senior Account Executive – The Good Company) Oana Șamit (Account Executive – The GOOD Company) Simona Stanciu (PR Consultant– Isopan Est) Florence Luca (Creative Director – Digital Friday) Alexandru Grecea, WeDine Group.
